Chapter 732: The Secret Realm within the Vajra Umbrella!

Qiao Dabao froze for a moment, intending to act together with Nanli, but the other family heads quickly pulled her back, urging her not to act impulsively.

Bai Peng was familiar with Cinian, which was why today’s situation didn’t escalate too much.

However, although the Upper Realm sects may not be as wealthy as the Four Great Families, their strength was second to none.

The Ten Great Cities of the Lower Realm were different from the Upper Realm, where many ordinary people who were not suitable for cultivation lived. These people were surviving in the cracks and couldn’t afford to provoke the Upper Realm sects.

Qiao Dabao pursed her lips, feeling a mix of emotions.

Seeing her hesitation, Nanli spoke, "Then let Lord Qiao become the city lord. You all have no objections, right?"

The other family heads immediately agreed.

Qiao Dabao was still stunned when Nanli took a drop of her own blood and placed it into a small piece of wood.

With one final stroke of her brush, she inscribed the last Talisman and handed the small piece of wood to Qiao Dabao. "Done, now the city’s defensive array is under your control, Lord City Lord."

Qiao Dabao stared at the little piece of wood in her hand, still in disbelief.

The family heads urged her to activate the protective array to see how it worked.

With just a thought, the golden light from the Talisman formations in the Eight Positions of the Qiankun array shot into the sky!

The golden light gathered, and the complicated symbols layered upon each other, forming a half-dome over the entire Jade Wolf City.

Everyone couldn’t help but marvel.

But Qiao Dabao still couldn’t accept it. "How could I be worthy of becoming the city lord?"

She could manage one family, but managing a city...

She feared she wouldn’t do it well and disappoint the citizens.

Nanli smiled at her. "Don’t worry, from what I see, you’re the most suitable."

At her words, Qiao Dabao’s unsettled heart finally found some peace.

One of the family heads flew up to test the array and found that it was even stronger!

When he landed, he continued to praise Nanli.

Nanli said, "This protective array not only defends but also allows for offensive capabilities. As long as the city lord holds this small piece of wood, they can control it."

"Really?" Qiao Dabao was shocked. "Then I’ll try it."

"It’s better not to," Nanli advised. "You need to place a high-grade spirit stone in the array’s core to power the attack. Unless you are rich enough that the spirit stones means nothing to you, don’t use it lightly."

A high-grade spirit stone... that was indeed quite extravagant.

Qiao Dabao immediately gave up the idea of testing it.

Now that she was the city lord, she decided to focus on giving Nanli some spirit stones.

The other family heads didn’t object. After all, Jade Wolf City had not only ended the Meng family’s rule but also gained a much stronger defensive array. They certainly had reason to be grateful.

In the end, Nanli received one thousand medium-grade spirit stones. She was delighted. "Thank you, thank you."

At that moment, Meng Lianfeng quickly floated up to her. "So... Can I be reincarnated now?"

He figured that since Nanli was in a good mood, he might suffer less.

Nanli raised an eyebrow and casually opened the Nether Path. "Go."

"You can still open the Nether Path?" Meng Lianfeng was stunned and hurriedly entered.

His ghostly form was transported to the Nether World, where he felt much more at ease.

He laughed maniacally. "Chu Nanli, just wait, eighteen years from now, I will come for you and take back everything that’s mine!"

Nanli gave him a cold glance. "You really think that just because you’re in the Nether World, everything is settled?"

"What else can you do? This is the Nether World! What can you do to me?!" Meng Lianfeng sneered. His ghostly face twisted.

Qiao Dabao was furious and wanted to punch Meng Lianfeng’s soul into oblivion, but she quickly realized that even if he were in the mortal world, she wouldn’t be able to beat him with her bare hands.

Nanli shouted into the Nether Path, "Is there a ghost envoy here?"

Meng Lianfeng didn’t care. He had read books and knew that ghost envoys only answered to the Hell Lord and the Death God, not some small cultivator.

However, the ghost envoy, who clearly recognized Nanli’s voice, appeared and quickly opened a larger portal in the Nether Path.

With great enthusiasm, the ghost envoy said, "Ancestor, what orders do you have?"

Nanli gestured toward Meng Lianfeng. "This one did many evil deeds in his lifetime. Treat him well."

"Of course!" The ghost envoy immediately swung a ghost-busting staff and began beating Meng Lianfeng mercilessly.

One strike wasn’t enough.

The ghost envoy used the invincible ghost-busting staff technique, causing Meng Lianfeng to fall to his knees, writhing in pain.

His soul was weakening, and his ghostly body trembled as he desperately looked at Nanli. "W-why? Why is the ghost envoy listening to you?"

Nanli couldn’t be bothered to argue and closed the Nether Path.

Meanwhile, the ghost envoy in the Nether World kicked Meng Lianfeng. "You are not only wicked but also incredibly stupid. Since Ancestor can open the gate of the the Nether Path, why can’t she order an envoy like me?"

Reminded by the ghost envoy, Meng Lianfeng immediately regretted everything, crying out, "Ghost envoy, I was wrong! I want to apologize to her..."

He couldn’t withstand the power of the ghost-busting staff any longer.

"Tsk tsk, you don’t have that chance anymore." The ghost envoy struck him again. "Go! Straight to Abyss Hell!"

Outside, Qiao Dabao and the others were stunned.

Not only did they witness the Nether Path, but they also saw Nanli command the ghost envoy?

It was truly eye-opening.

Night had completely fallen.

The oppressive feeling around Jade Wolf City had vanished now that the protective array had been reset.

Nanli knew that the cultivators eyeing Jade Wolf City were gradually dispersing.

Qiao Dabao wanted to invite them to stay the night.

But Nanli said, "I’ll go check on how my fourth brother is doing now."

With her younger sister saved by Chu Yang, Qiao Dabao was deeply grateful and wanted to thank him, so she followed Nanli to the city gates.

Under the gentle moonlight,

Chu Yang had just finished his meditation, and his spiritual power had greatly advanced.

Cinian was guarding him, his expression pleased. "Congratulations, Chu Yang."

At this rate, Chu Yang would soon form his Golden Core!

Chu Yang grinned.

Before he could thank him, Cinian’s Qiankun Bag suddenly trembled.

Cinian cursed inwardly and quickly performed a seal, chanting scriptures, but the Qiankun Bag’s seal was broken by the Vajra Umbrella’s Qiankun Bag Gold Immortal scattering.

The Buddha seal and the Talisman flared with red light.

Cinian and the twelve Shans joined forces, but they still couldn’t suppress the Vajra Umbrella.

With a loud crash,

The Vajra Umbrella broke through the Demon Suppression Seal and Talisman, sending out a shockwave that knocked everyone down except Cinian and Nanli.

The umbrella unfurled.

The Eight Diagrams of the Qiankun array were wrapped in sinister aura.

This sinister energy didn’t fear the Demon Suppression Seal and directly wrapped around Cinian.

With just a gust of wind, Cinian disappeared without a trace!

"Master!"

"Zen Master!"

Everyone was stunned.

What was happening?

The Vajra Umbrella kept spinning slowly.

Nanli immediately realized that the Vajra Umbrella was both an immortal and demonic artifact, and it contained a secret realm within it!

Cinian had been sucked into the secret realm!
